Summary Information provided by the agent in SIGEVA
Disciplina neurociencias, área neurobiología celular y molecular. Estudio de los mecanismos subyacentes a la neurotransmisión sináptica inhibitoria, particularmente las propiedades fisiológicas, farmacológicas y biofísicas de los receptores de GABAA, mediante la combinación de técnicas electrofisiológicas y de biología molecular y celular (expresión en ovocitos de rana, mutaciones dirigidas, fijación de voltaje con dos microelectrodos, registros de patch-clamp en rebanadas de cerebro, etc).
